K925864 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the COURIER PC. Classified as System, Digital Image Communications, Radiological (product code LMD), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Shoreline Business Consulting (Old Saybrook, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on September 20, 1993 after a review of 305 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Radiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 892.2020 - the FDA radiology and imaging software oversight framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Radiology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
